AXIS A1001 Network Door Controller

System Considerations

The Axis product shall be installed within the secured area.
The Axis product, whether it is a standalone door controller or a system of door controllers, shall
not impair the intended operation of the panic hardware used in conjunction with it.
The Axis product should be installed on a wall (preferred) or a ceiling, with or without a junction
box. It can also be installed on a DIN rail.

Configure the Hardware

Configure the hardware in the Hardware Configuration pages before installing the product.
Doors, locks and other devices can be connected to the Axis product before completing the
hardware configuration. However, the connection of devices will be easier if you complete the
hardware configuration first. This is because the hardware pin chart will be available when the
configuration is complete. The hardware pin chart is a guide on how to connect the pins and can
be used as a reference sheet for maintenance.
For more information about maintenance, see the product's User Manual.
To configure the hardware:
1. If required, remove the cover screw, insert a slotted screwdriver into the cover removal
slot and remove the cover.
2. Connect the Axis product to the network and wait until the network connection has
been established and the product has powered up. If the product is not powered through

power connector (DC input), see Specifications, on page 16.
